Down pipe problem
 
I finally got around to installing my Down pipe on, and I am having a really bad rubbing noise/vibration when stopping (below 15mph) and at idle. It's driving me crazy. Idk if it is because i didn't cut enough room for the down pipe or what. Maybe it's rubbing on the cab to much. i was just seeing if anyone else has a solution or an answer. Thanks

yeah get a bar and push the DP in every direction you can to kinda re shape it. that's what i did lol

Even after it's installed?

fordornothing 01-02-2012 06:28 PM

no it didn't. it was actually loose where the two prts met. so i think that helped
